No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Notwithstanding the rapid increase in utilization of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA), little consensus or high-quality evidence exists regarding optimal rehab methods following the procedure. Our research question is how different rehab methods influence the clinical outcomes following RTSA. This proposal presents a prospective randomized clinical trial where 100 eligible RTSA patients will be randomly assigned to two rehab groups (Short immobilization with patient-directed therapy vs Long immobilization with supervised therapy) at a single institution. Patient-reported outcomes, objective clinical data, and complications will be compared between the groups over a period of 2 years.
